Renovator Labour Party

[1] In 1986, the PTR supported the victorious candidacy of Moreira Franco for the government of the state of Rio de Janeiro.

It also elected two federal deputies: Paulo Cardoso de Almeida and Benedito Domingos, who integrated the governing coalition in the National Congress.

[3] In the first semester of 1992, the Collor government was seriously shaken by accusations of corruption, which resulted in the opening of an impeachment process against the president.

[4] In October 1992, the PTR and the PST officially formed a parliamentary bloc in the Congress, the first step towards the merger of the two parties.

On February 2, 1993, the fusion took place, creating the Progressive Party (PP), nationally presided by the former governor of Paraná, Alvaro Dias.
